(60,352 posts)I don't see any bashing Bernie.
There is a lot of bashing his supporters and some lets wait and see what he is going to do or say. I held my breath last night as his speech drug on but was pleased he did endorse Hillary in his prime time speech.
Can't say the same for many of the supporters/delegates that have been disruptive either here or at the convention.
Bernie lost the primary, supporters need to realize that and either get on board or get out. That is how it works, try again next time. I supported Hillary in 08, she lost, I decided that it was more important to have a Democrat in the White House than my feelings and went to work getting Obama elected even serving as a GOTV organizer.
There is too much at stake to let ones feelings get in the way of the betterment of the country, that is patriotism. You fight like hell for your candidate but you move on to make sure the election is won by Democrats and think about the next election for your candidate if they are not the winner this round.
But bashing Bernie, I don't think you are seeing what you think you are seeing.
GET OUT THE VOTE!
